My grandmother in hospital.....with hopital 'bug'

[talcygoneorange]

She's been ill for a while, 3rd visit to hospital.
Really worried.
Worst thing is....ive never even met her.
We discovered her existence last year,
Mum and sister have now met her.
I spoke to her son last week and he thinks that now is not agood time

I don't disagree with him

Just feels odd

hospital

will he feel better about it when she is home? or might she not be coming home?

Don't know
Iphoned him last week, he's living with her atm.
It was an difficult conversation, he was guarded.
Don't want her to die

what does he think you want from this, except to meet a relative you didnlt know you had? of course you don;t want her to die, this is a horrible situation, can you ask him again? write to him?

DH'S grandmother had MRSA (which I assume you mean) She survived it at the age of 92 ! Then died a couple of mnths later due to a water infection

She had pneumonia
Now has some kind of tummy bug

Have spoken to her on phone many times,
not since she's been ill.

Difficult 'cos he says that we can all meet up when she is better.

What can i say?

Could always visit the hospital anyway i spose.
We are in Norfolk, they are in Tottenham.

My op was just sharing really.....
how odd it is not knowing her
and now she's ill
Goodness knows how my mum copes

Had an email this am
from her daughter
she is a little better!
Still in hospital, but better!

she might have clostridium difficle as a result of the antibiotics given to treat the pneumonia ,happens quite a lot, they then treat the clos diff and hopefully she will be right as rain

thanks ratclare

hope so!
Apparently she has been suffering since the pnuemonia.
